Batman vs Superman had issue mostly in that Batman was conned way easier than he should have been and didn't show much of the intelligence and finesse his character is known for. That said, the movie was actually a very good case study into why being an SJW and being worked up over non-issues is so dangerous.
I am the exact opposite. I don't like any movies my friends like and I also don't like using anecdotal evidence to decide anything. I use rotten tomatoes rating although not by going to the site directly. I usually see the ratings posted on other movie sites. Now I may decide to view a movie with a bad rating if I like the cast and the plot or if I just feel the need to watch a movie to be culturally aware.
See the problem isn't that liberals disagree with people. It's that they simultaneously call anybody who disagrees with them names, disparages their character and even humanity, and holds onto their ideas in the face of evidence to the contrary creating levels of bigotry not seen before by humankind.
It's not a violation of FEC rules to rig a primary but it might be breach of contract since the DNC's own charter and bylaws promise impartiality. https://www.rt.com/usa/386896-dnc-lawsuit-wasserman-schultz/
A lot of cars have adaptive cruise control now. The Tesla just has lane keeping as well. The issue is that the cruise control does the braking for you. Initially, this is nerve racking. The car will fail to react for a moment probably to see if the driver is just momentarily breaking as opposed to significantly slowing down. Then the brakes will kick in with varying degree and slow the car while also closing the gap. This happens when you are driving too but when you are not doing it, you want to over-ride the system constantly. Eventually though, you start to trust the system and that's when inattentiveness can be a problem.
... and USA will never be able to produce it so cheap
What barriers to entry are there or what competitive advantage does Argentina have that would preclude the US from doing exactly what Argentina is doing?
This seems like an overly broad statement if I ever saw one. For one thing, how far away from the equator you live affects how much sun you get never mind local weather patterns. It may be cheapest in some localities but not in others. In addition, there are negative externalities not fully dealt with currently like increased energy storage and peaker plant requirements.
Given that other major players are also affected by the issue, I doubt that "inept" is the answer here. Things are generally designed they way they are for price and performance. It likely hasn't been a realistic concern until now.
You would be surprised. Employee retention is a major problem in the corporate world today. Its a problem a lot of CEOs and HR departments don't take seriously at all. People leave and never conduct a knowledge transfer and then new people are hired and the boss just assumes that they know everything the last person did. Granted, they might know the RFC for something exists but not how or if it was actually implemented.
Yes, a government worker made a mistake. However the larger issue here was the bad user interface design and the lack of programmatic dual authorization controls.
On the UI side, the interface simply consisted of a bunch of hyperlinks in no particular order with test messages and real messages interspersed. Upon clicking a link, the page just asked if you were sure you wanted to send a message but didn't show what the message actually was. It allowed one operator to make all the decisions with no oversight.
On the process side, the agency could have implemented a requirement to document two people being present and agreeing to send out a particular message. The company I work at does that all the time. A better solution would be to have dual authorization built right into the UI. One operator could select and confirm a message after seeing a draft of what would be sent. Then it could go into a queue for approval by a second operator who could approve it to actually be sent. If both operators are present, this would delay the message by only a few seconds.
Have you seen the documentary called "Idiocracy"? Any attempt to solve the population problem is going to backfire horribly. Soon people will be watering plants with sports drinks because they think plants crave electrolytes.
The UN can't be bothered with such things. There is a tweet going around highlighting that even the "UN Expert on human rights in Iran" has been silent on this matter.
You seem to have a fundamental lack of understanding of the first amendment of the constitution of the United States of America. It specifically forbids the government from making any law which restricts free speech. This is because the founding fathers knew that robust political discourse was the best defense against tyranny.
It's sad that the USA has become the last bastion of freedom in the world. Freedom used to be loved by many and now they gladly relinquish it in the name of political correctness and security theater.
I really shouldn't respond to trolls but did you just compare men complaining about always being painted as guilty to people who deny smoking causes cancer? I mean, that's pretty low.
I love it when premises are dismissed out of hand without being addresses whatsoever. It's honestly my favorite. This article summary contains many such premises being dismissed without even a batting of the eye.
You've never worked 80 hours in a week and then been expected to still meal prep and take care of the kids have you? The idea that you are worth what you are paid actually holds more true, not less true because you aren't actually working. That is because people who get paid that much need their rest time to be able to function highly and get paid that money in the first place.
You need to control variables if you want to propose and test a hypothesis like this. See Freakonomics for allusions to the methods involved here. Namely, you would have to control for recent law changes at both the city and state levels that reduce punishment for crimes and release criminals early. Prior studies these guys have done point to reduced punishment as being directly correlated and most likely causative of increased crime. http://pricetheory.uchicago.ed...

Not a problem on ROKU 2. Where are you viewing Netflix from?

I actually like timeline. It makes vacation blogging years later much easier.

If having an affair was illegal, I think Bill might be worried more than anybody else.

Or the problems created by mono-culture crops.

That's a false dichotomy. By making biodiesel renewable, you are just delaying the transition to all electric transportation.

...We ignore Microsoft updates since the'y're so ridiculously large.
Sounds like a solid game plan. Let me know how that works out.

Taking a dump in a public park isn't free speech.

No overtures for war were stated. Do you have any other strawman arguments to put up for us?
